Product Description
by Tj Arant (Author)
A daring undergraduate prank. A Civil War myth that just won't die. And a broken Vietnam vet in the middle of it all.
Jobless and battling PTSD brought on by Vietnam, Jackson Trade is drifting through 1977 one bourbon at a time, never more than one nightmare away from a bender. But when a band of undergraduates affixes the face and hands of Mickey Mouse on the campus clock tower, it gets his attention. That's because his estranged brother turns up just in time to be the only suspect when one of the pranksters is found dead. Suddenly tasked with sniffing out a crafty killer, Jackson travels a twisting path that links the tower to the myth of lost Confederate gold. And as he tracks the killer and the century-old mystery simultaneously, he sets in motion a series of events that will either lead to justice or to destruction. No matter which happens, nothing less than his brother's freedom depends on getting it right. And even if he gets it right, will he have to make One Trade Too Many? This is hardboiled Southern. All. Day. Long.
